[Bf-committers] Blender developers meeting - july 22 2012

[Ton Roosendaal]

Hi all,

Here's the notes from today's meeting in irc.freenode.net #blendercoders:

1) Blender 2.64 - upcoming release

- The bug tracker is still on 300 open issue, a too high total!

- Release notes: Sergey Sharybin started to list bugfixes, but needs help:
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:Ref/Release_Notes/2.64/Bug_Fixes

- OpenColorIO work stays in Tomato branch for now, but can go to trunk - if finished & tested & approved at least.

- Jens Verwiebe suggests to make multitouch / trackpads support a user-preference option, easier to control behaviour that way (as opposed to automatic checks).

- Collada reports: these were moved to the todo wiki in the past. Now it can get accepted in tracker and assigned to Gaia Clary.

- Campbell Barton: new mask rasterizer now is finished - it also supports unfilled curves (nice for masking out wires) and different interpolation falloff.

- Mask UI is still messy, will get cleaned/improved. A doc needs to be published still too, this will clear up confusion as well.

- Voronoi fracture now is usable: recursion bugs and a bad crash were fixed.

2) Other projects

- code.blender.org blog: Ton Roosendaal reminds everyone to also use it to copy over posts from own blogs.

3) Google Summer of Code

- Alex Kuznetsov released a new Android Blender game player. It now supports mouse emulation and .blend reading.

- Nicholas Rishel: will check with Alex on multitouch ghost help

- Miika Hamalainen added smoke color: http://vimeo.com/46122175

Thanks,
